Centilitre per second [cl/s] to Gallon per minute [gal/min] Converter
Quick Reference
1 Centilitre per second (cl/s) = 0.1585032314 Gallon per minute (gal/min)
1 Gallon per minute (gal/min) = 6.30901964 Centilitre per second (cl/s)
How to Convert Centilitre per second to Gallon per minute
1 cl/s = 0.15850323140625 gal/min
1 gal/min = 6.309019640343866 cl/s
To convert Centilitre per second to Gallon per minute, divide the value by 6.30901964 (equivalently, multiply by 0.1585032314). To convert Gallon per minute back to Centilitre per second, multiply by 6.30901964.
Example: convert 10 cl/s to gal/min:
10 cl/s = 10 x 0.15850323140625 = 1.5850323140625 gal/min
Centilitre per second
Definition: Centiliters per second (cL/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate. It represents the volume of a substance passing through a given point per unit of time, measured in centiliters per second.
History/origin: The centiliter (cL) is a derived unit of volume equal to one hundredth of a liter (1 cL = 0.01 L). The 'per second' component signifies a flow rate.
Current use: cL/s is less commonly used than mL/s or L/s, but it can be convenient in certain applications where the flow rates fall within a specific range, often in chemistry or certain food processing contexts.
Gallon per minute
Definition: Gallons per minute (gal/min) is a unit of flow rate that represents the volume of fluid that passes a point in one minute, measured in gallons. This is a widely used measure in many industries for flow quantification.
History/origin: Like gal/s, the origin comes from the need to measure fluid flow rates in practical applications. The gallon is an established unit of volume, and the 'per minute' component allows for a convenient measurement over a manageable time interval.
Current use: It's used extensively in applications like measuring water flow in households, industrial processes, and in vehicle fuel consumption. It is a common unit for pumps, showers, and irrigation systems.
